I just want to thank everyone for the b-day wishes yesterday! You are all so sweet :-)

My snack last night was an orange:



And a Green Tea with Real Apple Flavour:



TODAY'S EATS

This morning for breakfast I had some source vanilla yogurt, with the last of my Glo-nola, and a banana.



I also had a slice of toast with PB:



For lunch I ran to Costco, and grabbed a slice of pepperoni pizza.

My Dad took me out for dinner tonight to Red Lobster!

I had 1 biscuit:



Caesar salad:



And snow crab legs with mashed potatoes:



I like crab a LOT more than lobster. Which do you prefer?

This evening I am going to have another rockin' Friday night ... catch up on some TV, and maybe do some homework.

In case you were wondering ... I am the epitome of cool.

I Apologize in Advance ...

For my super boring meal pics today. I ate the exact same thing for lunch and dinner ... and it was leftovers from last nights dinner. Oh well, it was SO good, I don't mind!

No morning post today, because I was in a rush to get to work for 7:45 - I had a lot to do!

First things first ... this was my snack from last night:


(Source vanilla yogurt topped with Glo-nola, Chia Seeds, and Organic Coconut).

I also had this:



(You might see a lot of these little babies on here for the next little while - they are my FAVE, and they are less than 100 cal - perfect for a little snack!)

This morning for breakfast, I had 1/2 a bagel with cream cheese, and a Green Monster:





Lunch today was leftover Mousakka from last night:



An orange:



And a piece of cheese:



After a great day at work, I headed straight to the university to run my experiment in the lab. I was there pretty late, and had this bar to hold me over until dinner:



When I got home, the hubby had already had leftovers for dinner, so I had the same ... more mousakka!



Looks gross, but tastes great!

Sunday, October 4, 2009

Today was a perfect, relaxing Sunday :-) We spent the day with family, and also did some shopping!

We went for brunch with my family, and I had this:



Southwestern Breakfast (Ground Beef, Egg, Veggies, Cheese, Hash browns).
I ate 1 slice of the toast.

After brunch the hubby and I took our little nephew shopping with us, as we picked out some things for our basement (which is SO close to being finished)!

In the afternoon I ate this:



So far I have LOVED all of the bars from Glo Bakery! Angela is a great baker!

Dinner was at the hubby's parents home ... and we had a lovely fall meal - roast beef, mashed potatoes, Yorkshire pudding and rutabaga. I put gravy on everything except the rutabaga. I also had a glass of Crystal Light Iced tea.



After dinner the hubby and I hit chapters for some tea, and some browsing.
Right now I am snacking on some yogurt and glo - nola:



The glo-nola is another one of Angela's products. This is how it comes:



I sprinkled about 1/4 of the bag on my yogurt.

This week I will be featuring 3 new vegetarian recipes on my blog! The hubby and I are trying to incorporate more vegetarian meals into our lives, and so I have decided to try 10 new veggie recipes this month. Stay tuned for the recipes, and reviews!

Words on vegetarianism - The hubby and I love ALL types of food, and that includes meat. We do however really enjoy tofu and other vegetarian proteins, and do not feel like we have to include meat in our meals everyday. We know that going veggie is better for the environment, and that is why we try to maintain a flexitarian approach to our diets - although labels are not cool, so we just eat what we want :-)
